The Rental, 2020 (contains spoilers)

This review may contain spoilers. A really by the numbers story until the last 10 minutes. That made up for everything. I’d love to see what someone could do with a sequel now.

The Drone, 2019

I wasn’t too sure about what tone the movie was going for but by the end I was onboard laughing at everything going on.

Kindred Spirits, 2019

Might have taken a little while to get going but the performances are the real highlight.

Showbiz Kids, 2020

Lots of interesting and candid interviews. Seeing how kids were handled back in the early days of film was pretty shocking.

Bill & Ted Face the Music, 2020

A sweet and fun send off for two of my favorite characters. One of the better 20+ years later sequels to come out so far.

Sea Fever, 2019

I felt it never went all the way with it’s interesting ideas and cool creatures. Fans of The Thing will still find something to enjoy here.

Pitch Black, 2000

This movie is lean and mean and still packs a punch. I miss the days when Vin Diesel actually cared.

Countdown, 2019

A couple of clever ideas wasted in a sub-par movie. Hopefully they figure it out for v2.0.

The Old Guard, 2020

It really bugged me that these people who lived for hundreds of years were so easy to repeatedly find and capture. Seems like they should be a little smarter than that.

An American Pickle, 2020

The tone was too all over the place for me to really get behind this movie. It couldn’t decide on being a heart felt family drama or a fish out of water comedy. Seth Rogen was good in both roles tho.

Swordfish, 2001

Everything that was wrong with early 2000s action movies. Loud, ugly, and dumb.
